hello,

 

I am back with some new questions ;)

 

I´d really like to cover a scene in snow. Now,is there any tutorial for that (I did not found something useful yet) or do you guys have a good starting point, that will put me in the right direction? I was thinking to do kind of snow-simulations in other apps - but maybe I should just "handpaint" the snow.

 

Do not get me wrong here - I do notmean textures, I mean real mesh/voxel snow onto objects...

 

kind regards

Any reference pic could help

 

a scene with one hat, a town, a mountain, falling, over a road,... ?

 

handpaint... let me see...

 

Surface mode

take a sphere, add noise, autoretopo... make a LOT.

 

Import tool > on brush> pick from retopo and click, click, click, click, click...

Vox extrude will do the trick , it will be on its own layer and you can easily manipulate it , in order to look like snow.

 

Tonys says the same , and carlosan both ways will work as well.

 

Another way is to paint the snow in paint room with normals....

That is how I would do it, personally. I would model or sculpt the basic forms, and then texture the detail.
